Lumbee History

Lumbee Culture

Welcome to the Lumbee Regional Development Association. Established in 1968, Lumbee Regional Development Association, Inc. was created to provide services for the Lumbee Indian communities. With main offices in Pembroke, NC, LRDA has worked aggressively to improve services for members of the Lumbee Tribe.

LRDA is committed to providing a range of valuable services that assist disadvantaged Indian people. The organization works in conjunction with a number of governmental organizations to provide services and improve social and economic conditions in Lumbee communities.

LRDA is widely recognized by the Lumbee people, the federal government, the State of North Carolina, other states, foundations, funding entities, and other Indian Tribes and urban Indian organizations as an organization that serves Lumbee people.

LRDA's mission is to continuously assess the needs of Indian people and others in our service area, work to improve the quality of life, develop and/or obtain resources to fill the gap in the ongoing provision of social, health, economic, housing, education, job development and training services to meet the needs of our client population.
